Investigating the causal impact of body mass index on meniscus injuries: A 2-sample Mendelian randomization study.

Although the MR-Egger regression analysis (OR = 1.59, 95% CI = 0.78–3.23, P = .230) did not reach statistical significance, the trend was consistent with the 2 methods described above, suggesting that obesity may directly influence the risk of meniscus injuries through genetic mechanisms (Table 2 ).
